Who are the others?

According to Kelly Keegs, now the girl was the one talking, and the man was listening to her. Gripping the attention of all the passengers, the girl asked him if she was “just like the others.”  Who are these others and what did she mean by that?

The passengers, who were already sympathetic towards the girl, were now siding with her even more. She asked, “are you phasing me out like you did with the others?” This didn’t depict the gut in the best light.
